@ZichenWanghere from @CCG_org on reasons behind #China's position on #Russia-#Ukraine conflict & what the West could do to get China on its side: "I see that many in the West insist that China has enormous leverage to pressure Moscow but the reality is much more difficult." 🧵: 
"Whenever a Chinese person looks at China on the world map, he or she sees an overbearing Russia, a huge country on top of China. The entire 20th century, #Russia has had an enormous impact and influence on China."
"After a lot of problems, only in the past ten years or so, the two countries have become close geopolitical partners, especially against what they perceive as US containment and encirclement. "

Some breaking news, we are learning about repeated explosions in #Zaporizhzhia this morning.
S-300 anti aircraft missiles again being used by #Russia to attack civilians, but monitoring groups say one exploded just after launch, before it crossed the frontline.
It's noisy.

The "President of the EU Commission" is a simple title with no power over any European country but over a few buildings in #Brussels. Von der Leyen is trying to promote herself as a warmonger to replace @jensstoltenberg. #China can't give her any weight.
#France President @EmmanuelMacron: No Country - but the #US of course - can ceploy nuclear weapons on foreign territory (Russia's recent decision to deploy NW in Belarus).
He also said no country - but the West of course - has the right to violate international laws.

With the military and technological advancement, the concept of mutually assured destruction has become an almost obsolete idea. In the 21st century, we are witnessing something different, a new kind of warfare that is Hybrid Warfare.

🧵1/ The upcoming 18 March Ohrid meeting between #Serbia’s 🇷🇸 President Aleksandar #Vučić and #Kosovo 🇽🇰 Prime Minister Albin #Kurti is already a bust. Odds that anything of substance will be signed are the same as the odds that Donald #Trump will stop coloring his hair.
2/ This is part of a game of chicken between Vučić and Kurti. Vučić swerved first on 27 February in #Brussels, where it became apparent that Kurti was willing to keep his foot on the gas pedal longer. The faces at the meeting speak eloquently of winners and losers.
How is the #UkraineRussiaWar affecting the #EU's prospects? Its economy? Its place in the world?

🔹Some context: Zhang’s assessment is more pessimistic than some in China, but several of his arguments are in line with those made by other Chinese analysts: e.g. the negative impact that the #war has had on the EU’s quest for #StrategicAutonomy. This is bad news for #China.

Transparency International EU - The global coalition against corruption in Brussels Three MEPs currently hold paid positions in organisations on the EU lobby register. Viviane Reding is a board member for the Bertelsmann Foundation, Agnes Jongerius #FNV transparency.eu/mep-income/
is on the supervisory board of #PostNL and Paul Rübig holds a position with the Austrian Chamber of Commerce (WKÖ), #secondjobs
Such roles may not involve lobbying their colleagues in the European Parliament, but the MEPs concerned should make it clear that this is the case, especially in view of the explicit ban on lobbying activities in the #European_Parliament’s #Code_of_Conduct.
